The challenge as I see it is that tiq is to be considered BadWare by default, do to the way the utag.js is operating (obfuscating) third party SpyWare, Adware, Tracking pixels etc.

I can see in the history book that this domain have it's own debates over the time. However, it is listed, then delisted and then listed again, it seems like a never ending repeat of it's self.

You can by visiting ex. mvps find it currently commented out, not removed. Personally I'll keep it blacklisted, as I believe it's more important that users are aware of the threats and then have the ability to make there personal choice before eventually whitelist it locally.

This is my 2 cents about why I believe it should stay.

wget -qO- 'https://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt' | grep 'tiqcdn.com'

Thanks for the detailed info @spirillen , how bad is the issue @crssi can you post the screenshot?

Just checked again and it looks like they made a change on their login and there is no breakage at login ATM.

Can we, please, set this issue on hold? I will close the issue and reopen if needed.

Thank you and cheers
